velocity in both x and y directions=40 m/s. For X coordinate, X=40t i.e X=40x2=80m
For Y coordinate, Y=Uyt+1/2gt^2 i.e. Y=40x2-1/2x10x4=60m
Position of ball after 2 sec= (80,60)
Velocity in X direction remains same. For Y direction, Vy=Uy+gt i.e. Vy=40-10x2=20m/s
i.e. velocity of ball =(40^2+20^2)^1/2=44.72 m/s and direction=tan-1(20/40)=tan-1(1/2)=26.56 degrees
